Gets Near
Capacity
Turnout
By Maggie Christensen
The opening of Eugene O’Neill’s tragedy, “Beyond the Horizon” last night in Bovard Auditorium was representative of the style that earned O’Neill fame for his “tragic sense.” The characters are from the beginning hopelessly tangled in confused motives and unhappiness and dissatisfaction with their lives. They are assailed with doubt and guilt.
The story is set on a farm in New England. It involves the sons of James Mayo. Robert, a sensitive and lonely, youth who feels that he will find the beauty he seeks over the hills and “beyond the horizon,” plans to leave the commonplaceness of the farm behind and travel the seas on his uncle’s ship. Hjs older brother, Andy,-is “a true Mayo.” a farmer who loves the soil and feels that everything can be found by just staying there and making it the best farm in the county.
Opening Scene The curtain rises on Robert, sitting alone on a wall and reading. His brother joins him and they discuss the trip that Robert will begin the next day. Andy speaks of the closeness they have always enjoyed and tries desperately to understand why his brother wants to leave. He leaves and Ruth, a neighbor, appears. She, too, speaks of the trip and complains of the humdrum life she leads with her invalid mother. Robert declares his love for Ruth and she pleads with him not to leave her. He agrees, with a parting look at the horizon he had hoped to be free to conquer, and the curtain falls.
The rest of the story is concerned with Robert’s declaration that he has decided not to leave, that he will stay, marry Ruth, and become a farmer. His mother and father are relieved, his uncle furious, realizing that he is giving up the only chance he had for happiness.
Love Thwarted Andy, his love for Ruth thwarted. leaves with his uncle instead, carrying the curses of his father with him. Under Robert’s supervision the farm runs down, his father dies, and his wife grows to hate him, and declares her love for Andy. Andy returns, and seeing the hag that Ruth has become, announces his intention of taking up business in Argentina. Robert is completely disillusioned, ill, and hopeless of his future with, Ruth and their baby. He finds his freedom to wander and see what lies beyond the horizon, only with death in the final scene.
As Robert, Faul Phillips turns in a performance both sensitive and believable. He is a polished actor, and his stature carries whatever weakness the production shows. John LeVan’s portrayal of Andy begins rather poorly, but gains maturity as the play progresses. He effectively plays a bumbling farm boy whose outside experiences makes him smarter but does little to increase his understanding.
As Ruth, June Moncur gets off to a bad start and.ends the same way. But she reaches a high point in the scene where she discloses her love for Andy. She seems rather uncomfortable on the stage, but she succeeds in making a stupid, useless creature who will turn to anything for es-caoe from her own mediocrity.
Ducat Pickup Deadline Set
Rooters tickets for the SC-Washington and SC-ULCA games must be picked up at the Service Building by Friday, Nov. 12.
The building is open from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. this week and next, and next week Monday through Thursday at 6 to 8 p.m.
The reason for the advance deadline of the UCLA tickets is that since this year it is the UCLA home game, and all unclaimed tickets must be returned a week before the game, according to i)hn Morley, ticket manager. *
Safdeye Voted Beau Brummeli in Contest
Roger Safdeye, Sigma Alpha Mu, is the official SC Beau Brummeli.
Due to a last minute contribution of $80 by the Sammies, Safdeye defeated runner-ups Jerry McMahon and Chuck Zonder in this contest sponsored by the Sophomore Council in conjunction with MGM studios.
“Two hundred and twenty dollars was collected during the three days of voting, and we feel that the contest was a big success,” Burt Silbert, chairman, announced.
Money from the contest is going to the Trojan Chest.
Safdeye stated that he was glad that the money would go to charity. He did not disclose, however, to what girl he would give the sweater and skirt, part of the prize accompanying the title.
Literary Film Shown Today
A . color film produced entirely by SC faculty and students, “Story Tellers of the Canterbury Tales,” will be shown today at 3:15 p.m. in FH 226.
The film, which is sponsored by the English department, is narrated in middle English by Dr. William D. Templeman, professor of English.
The cinema department filmed the production and the 14th century background music was provided by the music department.
No live characters are used in the film. Dainty figurines which portray the characters in the play were donated by Florence Scott, professor emeritu§.

The opening of Eugene O’Neill’s tragedy, “Beyond the Horizon” last night in Bovard Auditorium was representative of the style that earned O’Neill fame for his “tragic sense.” The characters are from the beginning hopelessly tangled in confused motives and unhappiness and dissatisfaction with their lives. They are assailed with doubt and guilt.
The story is set on a farm in New England. It involves the sons of James Mayo. Robert, a sensitive and lonely, youth who feels that he will find the beauty he seeks over the hills and “beyond the horizon,” plans to leave the commonplaceness of the farm behind and travel the seas on his uncle’s ship. Hjs older brother, Andy,-is “a true Mayo.” a farmer who loves the soil and feels that everything can be found by just staying there and making it the best farm in the county.
Opening Scene The curtain rises on Robert, sitting alone on a wall and reading. His brother joins him and they discuss the trip that Robert will begin the next day. Andy speaks of the closeness they have always enjoyed and tries desperately to understand why his brother wants to leave. He leaves and Ruth, a neighbor, appears. She, too, speaks of the trip and complains of the humdrum life she leads with her invalid mother. Robert declares his love for Ruth and she pleads with him not to leave her. He agrees, with a parting look at the horizon he had hoped to be free to conquer, and the curtain falls.
The rest of the story is concerned with Robert’s declaration that he has decided not to leave, that he will stay, marry Ruth, and become a farmer. His mother and father are relieved, his uncle furious, realizing that he is giving up the only chance he had for happiness.
Love Thwarted Andy, his love for Ruth thwarted. leaves with his uncle instead, carrying the curses of his father with him. Under Robert’s supervision the farm runs down, his father dies, and his wife grows to hate him, and declares her love for Andy. Andy returns, and seeing the hag that Ruth has become, announces his intention of taking up business in Argentina. Robert is completely disillusioned, ill, and hopeless of his future with, Ruth and their baby. He finds his freedom to wander and see what lies beyond the horizon, only with death in the final scene.
As Robert, Faul Phillips turns in a performance both sensitive and believable. He is a polished actor, and his stature carries whatever weakness the production shows. John LeVan’s portrayal of Andy begins rather poorly, but gains maturity as the play progresses. He effectively plays a bumbling farm boy whose outside experiences makes him smarter but does little to increase his understanding.
As Ruth, June Moncur gets off to a bad start and.ends the same way. But she reaches a high point in the scene where she discloses her love for Andy. She seems rather uncomfortable on the stage, but she succeeds in making a stupid, useless creature who will turn to anything for es-caoe from her own mediocrity.
